Chapter 170: All Things
Zhuang Zhou was shocked, and when he heard his name coming out of Ma Shanhao's mouth, and there were three words "Master Zu" in front of him, he suddenly had an inexplicable feeling in his heart.
Ma Shanhao said: "The name of the patriarch is exactly the same as that of the grandfather, which is a very strange thing. In fact, the patriarch's mother, Ye ...... When Xuan'er gave you this name, I asked her, but she just smiled and didn't say anything, and I thought it was a little strange at the time. Now it seems that this is really providence!"
Zhuang Zhou asked: "I heard that the reason why Master Zu was able to create the Dream Hunting Technique back then was because he had a strange dream, and then he realized it......
Ma Shanhao said: "Yes! This jade pendant is painted by the scene of the ancestor in a dream, and the Xiaomeng butterfly written on the back is also! When the ancestor fell into a dream, he dreamed of turning into a butterfly, and after waking up, he didn't know whether it was Zhuang Zhou's dream of butterflies or butterflies and Zhuang Zhou's dreams. The ancestor escaped into the mountains, did not taste it for three years, and finally realized the method of dream-hunting, looked up to the sky and laughed out of the mountain, and since then we have multiplied our dream-hunting family......"
Everyone has already heard the history of Zhuang Zhouwumeng, but seeing the picture on this jade pendant at this moment, it is like seeing the style of the ancestor with their own eyes, and they can't help but be fascinated.
Ma Shanhao said again: "The patriarch's name is exactly the same as the ancestor, and now he has obtained the Xiaomeng jade pendant that has been missing for hundreds of years, isn't this the will of heaven?"
Zhuang Zhou looked at the ancestor who was sleeping soundly on the jade pendant, and suddenly felt a little dizzy, as if he felt that his body was fluttering and flying up, entering the painting of the jade pendant, leaning down and lying down, just lying on the body of the ancestor master, and it was actually integrated, in front of him. Butterflies fly all the time......
"Patriarch!" Seeing that Zhuang Zhou's eyes were suddenly a little confused, Ma Shanhao shouted.
Zhuang Zhou suddenly realized that the butterfly disappeared in front of him. He put the jade pendant in his arms and said, "Let's not talk about this. I not only got Xiaomeng Yu Pei from the cold ghost, but also got three pills, I don't know what it is, let's take a closer look!" he said, took out the small box from his bosom, opened it, and put it on the table.
Ma Shanhao pinched one of the pills with two fingers. Put it under the candlelight and look at it carefully, put it under his nose and asked, then looked up and asked, "Patriarch, I heard you say that the cold ghost was destroyed by his master thirty years ago. Recently, this year has been slowly recovering?"
Zhuang Zhou nodded and said, "Yes!"
Ma Shanhao lowered his head again and sniffed the pill, and then was silent thoughtfully. Zhou Long on the side couldn't wait. asked, "Uncle Ma." What kind of pill is this? Tell me quickly! Is it a Gu Nian Pill?"
Ma Shanhao put it down and said slowly: "It's not Gu Nian Dan! If I am not mistaken, it should be a healing medicine, which can recondense the scattered breath and restore people's injured thoughts." Moreover, it can pull out the dream poison that remains in the depths of a person...... This pill is called the Returning Qi Pill!"
Qi Rejuvenation Pill? Zhuang Zhou felt that the name of this pill was too ordinary. It's even a little cheesy. However, I heard Ma Shanhao say that although the name of this pill is earthy, it can restore the injured mind and expel the dream poison. Immediately thought of Ma Tianhu. A few months have passed, he is busy quelling the chaos, and he has not had the opportunity to exorcise the dream poison for him, although Ma Tianhu's complexion has recovered well, but the dream hunting technique still has nothing, now with this elixir, how can he not be overjoyed? said: "Great! Senior Brother Tianhu is in need of this pill, this time I really want to thank the cold ghost! Uncle Ma, you can take all three!"
Ma Shanhao was also overjoyed, but when he heard Zhuang Zhou say that all three were given to Ma Tianhu, he was startled and said, "Patriarch, how can that kid Tianhu need three, only half a pill is enough! There is a saying in the Dream Hunter Clan that they would rather have one Qi Rejuvenation Pill than ten Solid Mind Pills! Just because although the Solid Mind Pill is good, after all, it is only an elixir to speed up the progress of cultivation, without it, as long as you are diligent and enterprising, there will eventually be an upgrade one day. The Qi Returning Pill is different, because when a person is injured, the injury of the mind is more dangerous and difficult to treat than the injury of **, or even incurable at all. However, this Qi Pill can bring the dead back to life and heal the wounds of people's minds! Moreover, the materials for refining Qi Returning Pills are even more rare, and the refining method is even more complicated...... So, the Qi Returning Pill is sometimes simply a legendary existence!"
Yin Ji looked at the three Qi Returning Pills in the box and said, "Looking at the capacity of this box and the traces in the box, there were originally six Qi Returning Pills here, but now there are only three left...... The effect of this Qi Pill is really amazing!"
He didn't finish his sentence, but everyone already knew what it meant. There were originally willow pills in the box, but now there are only three left, which means that the cold ghost has taken three, and just these three pills have restored most of the people who have lost all their skills! I just don't know how the cold ghost who has been hiding in Li Qiaosheng's house has refined so many Qi Rejuvenation Pills?
Zhou Long asked, "Why don't the cold ghosts take all six in one go, wouldn't that be more effective?"
Ma Shanhao said with a smile: "Zhou Long doesn't know, although the effect of this Qi Pill is good, it can't be taken in large quantities in a short period of time, otherwise the meridians of the whole body will be broken, and the seven orifices will bleed to death! So, I guess that the cold ghost took three pills, and it took at least ten years during the period......
Zhuang Zhou asked, "Take three pills in ten years?"
Ma Shanhao said: "Yes, therefore, Tianhu only needs half of it, and this half of it should be taken in batches within a year...... I said that the patriarch must be favored by heaven, otherwise how could he get both Xiaomeng Yu Pei and a magic medicine like the Qi Rejuvenation Pill? Shan Hao thanked the patriarch for Tianhu here, Tianhu was saved!" As he spoke, tears fell like rain, and he was about to kneel.
Zhuang Zhou hurriedly helped him up and said, "Uncle Shi doesn't have to be polite!" was also full of emotion in his heart, thinking of Ma Tianhu's friendship with himself, this time he was so seriously injured, in fact, it was also because of himself, and he couldn't help but shed tears.
Ma Shanhao stood up happily and said, "It's been a few months since the Heavenly Tiger Mind was injured, and I'm anxious. Patriarch, don't be a joke, I'll ask for this half pill and start taking it for Tianhu immediately when I go back......"
At this moment, Zhuang Zhou also felt that there seemed to be some kind of providence in himself, otherwise why would he not only get the Xiaomeng Jade Pendant, but also get this rare pill? Seeing that Ma Shanhao was in a hurry, he pinched up a pill, and with a force on his thumb and forefinger, he silently split it in half, only to see that the fractured surface of the pill was as smooth as new, showing a lead color, with a faint smell of sulfur. Zhuang Zhou handed half of the pills to Ma Shanhao, and put the other half back in the box and lid it.
Ma Shanhao carefully held half of the Qi Rejuvenation Pill and walked out of the patriarch's room happily.
Zhuang Zhou saw Ma Shanhao go out, and said to Yin Ji: "Senior Brother Yin, you are originally from the secular world, you should be more familiar with that world, right?"
Yin Ji smiled bitterly: "I was taken back to Yunmeng Mountain by my master when I was ten years old, and I never went back since, and I only have a vague impression of that world......
Zhuang Zhou nodded and said: "I just said that I want to take the Dream Hunter Clan away from Yunmeng Mountain and integrate into the secular world, which is really a helpless move! The Dream Hunter Clan has been trapped in Yunmeng Mountain for thousands of years, and the distance from the secular world is the farther away, it is better to say that it is a paradise, it is better to say that it is isolated from the world, this situation is more and more unfavorable to the development of the Dream Hunter Clan, everyone is like a frog sitting in the well, can only see the small piece of sky at the mouth of the well, and think that this is the whole world...... Therefore, looking at Yunmeng Mountain, even if it is Zhou Bonian's side, the cultivation of the Dream Hunting Technique has fallen into an embarrassing situation, and the real masters must be in the secular world! If we don't go out and rest on our laurels, the day of the decline of the Dream Hunting Clan will eventually come......"
Yin Ji and Zhou Long listened to Zhuang Zhou's remarks, and they really had a feeling of sudden enlightenment. They have been in Yunmeng Mountain for decades, how could they have such profound thoughts!
Zhuang Zhou continued: "So, Senior Brother Yin will set off tomorrow to take a trip to the secular world, and give you half a year to take the phantom card to meet the heads and brains of all the secular forces, whether they are sincere or fake, your purpose is to learn more about the real situation in the secular world, come back and tell me." Half a year from now, no matter what the situation is, I will go to the secular world in person......"
As he spoke, he took out the phantom card from an iron cabinet in the patriarch's room, handed it to Yin Ji, and said, "According to convention, the power of this phantom card can only be obtained by competition between disciples, but now, the talent has withered to such a ...... I'm not going to stick to the form. ”
Yin Ji took the phantom card, bowed down and said, "Patriarch, rest assured, Yin Ji will never fail in his mission!"
Zhuang Zhou turned his head to Zhou Long again and said, "After Senior Brother Yin leaves, this matter of selecting young people and cultivating on weekdays will be planned by Senior Brother Zhou and Uncle Ma......" Without waiting for Zhou Long to answer, he remembered something again, and said: "There is one more thing, that is, the candidate for the head of Qixia Village, what do you suggest?"
Zhou Long bowed down and said: "Originally, Li was the most suitable...... Zhuang Zhou said: "I also thought so, but Li insisted on going to the mine and did not want to be the head of this village." Yin Ji pondered for a moment and said, "I think that Li Li is calm and calm, and he is very loyal to the patriarch, but it's okay......"
Zhuang Zhou nodded, remembering that it was Li Li who led the people to rescue the imprisoned slaves. When Li Qiaosheng's house was dormant, Li arranged all the affairs inside and outside Li's house, and it was Li Li who went up the mountain to inquire about Gong Dingren's situation. This Li Li looks rough on the surface, but he is quite meticulous in his actions, and he goes up the mountain to spy on secrets as a mortal, and there is no flaw. It is precisely because of Li Li's success that Zhuang Zhou is in control of the situation.
Thinking of this, Zhuang Zhou said: "Okay, for the time being, he will be the patriarch of Qixia Village." However, he can't live in Li Qiaosheng's old house, let him build another house by himself! The Li family's old house is temporarily sealed, and I will keep it useful!"
Although Yin Ji and Zhou Long had some doubts in their hearts, they only flashed in a flash, and no one asked. The two seem to have begun to get used to Zhuang Zhou's unfathomable and unexpected.
The three of them talked for a long time, and it wasn't until late at night that Yin Ji and Zhou Long left.
Zhuang Yiren sat in the candlelight of the patriarch's room and pondered, silently reciting the cultivation mantra of the Splitting Beast Method in his heart, and then entered the dream realm and cultivated for a long time before falling into a deep sleep.
Nothing was said all night. (To be continued......)
